Did you read the error message? It says exactly what's wrong.

Hi
The very purpose of indicatiing in the POM as the mainClassmanifest  attribute is totally lost if maven is finding some excuse to avoid a good output.
and if this is a real error then  ,i request you to do the correction.this is besides  having called the http:\\ibiblio.org.com in the pom as addtional <url> to help during emergeny times  if  my local repository fails.
Hope you are now convinceed of my request

Can you show us your POM and Manifest?

Hi
The manifest file exists as manifest.txt with values as ;-Main-Class: spring.SpringBOxLayoutPanel
my POM  in which the mainClassmanist is attribute is included as follows:

<plugin>
                <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
                <artifactId>maven-war-plugin</artifactId>
                <version>2.3</version>

                    <configuration>

                   </configuration>
                     <fileset dir="${jsps}" includes="*.html,*.jsp,*.doc" excludes="*.jar,*.war"/>
		    			  <webinf dir="${jsps}/WEB-INF" includes="*.wsdd,*.lst"/>

                </configuration>
            </plugin>

Shall be pleased if you tell me how to make this atribute entry available in the codus.org.com as shown in the error message.since my pom does show a standalone application viz SpringBoxLayoutPanel.java whose classes are in dirfolder spring
Thanks

Why are you trying to run a WAR from the command line? A WAR is a web application, not a console application.

Your configuration looks wrong. Why do you have a <configuration> element inside a <configuration> element? Where did you get <mainClassmanifest> from? It isn't documented on the maven-war-plugin page.

Hi
       
        Many thanks for your valuable criticism .I have to mention this because your remarks are indirectly,helped me to know where i go wrong.
        Especially so for  war usage that need not be invoked through console a very impacted primitive correction .
        In this way other things also were very useful.
       
        But maven on his side plays his own role of error finding without any corrective measure whatsoever as you often do
        Please be surprised to go through this POM and its amazing yet same  resultswith no help rendered making me to rely on you
        Can you do something on this to stop repeaated finding faults by our esteemed guru viz Maven

Hi
I just wanted to see executable jarfile  created by maven run successfully giving the output .But unfortunately
this is not happening in-spite of various inclusions details like MANIFEST.MF etc
May i request the correction.

as for example
in my pom in the plugin place i included the MANIFEST.MF but still invain in result

*********************
when i used the command 
mvn exec:exec -D exec.executable="java
or is it that "client" VM is never avaiable.please help

You say executable JAR, but in your original pom you are creating a WAR. Which is it, do you want an executable jar or a web application? And if you want a web application, why are you trying to execute it from the command line, that's not what WARs are for. We explained this to you in this thread: https://coderanch.com/t/661326/tools/Maven-sharing-Jar

If you want an executable JAR, do you already know how to make one without Maven? If you do, then start out by making the simplest POM you can that can create an executable JAR that runs a Hello World program. It shouldn't contain any dependencies, and no plugins other than the ones you need to create the JAR. After that, show us what you've done. Show us the complete POM, and the complete source code of your Hello World class.

Hi
I  made the pom without any dependencies not even -junit-test and accordingly
a jar was created as usual,a jar  whoso starting letter is with pk(this refers to package )
This type of jar even though called executable jar is  it invariably does not run successfully .

The follwing is the pom for your ref

<project xmlns="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
  xsi:schemaLocation="http://maven.apache.org/POM/4.0.0 http://maven.apache.org/xsd/maven-4.0.0.xsd">
  <modelVersion>4.0.0</modelVersion>

  <groupId>Stephen</groupId>
  <artifactId>Hunsi</artifactId>
  <version>1.0</version>
  <packaging>jar</packaging>

  <name>Hunsi</name>
  <url>http://maven.apache.org</url>

  <properties>
    <project.build.sourceEncoding>UTF-8</project.build.sourceEncoding>
  </properties>

  
</project>

In the ordinary place an executable jar is created using the command
jar -cvmf manifest.txt  Huns.jar  humsi/*

manifest.txt :-> Main-Class: hello.HellowWorld

This is is the jist of your assignment that i request you to furthee eloborate or make it run ok
For Knowing source details
Please run
mvn package
you will get he details in the dumped target.
But it is of no use since this jar is unable to show results
Withstanding all these still  my thanks a lot for theinitiative & tutorship
Thanks

Yes, with this POM the jar won't run, because it doesn't add a Main-Class entry to the manifest file. To do that, you need to configure the maven-jar-plugin. The applicable goal is jar:jar.

On this page, you can find the configuration options for the jar:jar goal. Use it to update your POM, so that it runs the HellowWorld class. After you're done, or when you're stuck, post your entire POM here.

Why did you add all those children to the <archive> and <manifest> elements? Do you need them? Why are you specifying both a manifest configuration and a manifest file? Why are you running unit tests?

Get rid of the manifest file and the unit tests. This assignment is about doing the bare minimal to create an executable jar with just a POM and a hello world class.

Don't add any elements to the POM unless you need them for this assignment.

Hi

the assignment you are referring is already completedin the last  with the failure since

jar but execut as well.Incidentally i am  sure thatif maven creates a jar
only without other ejb,ear, web etc ,then he uses only one artifactId .If this inference can be
useful to you  &  able to activate further then please  elaborate to get the needful done viz execution of jar.

Please respond to this with a yes or no since everthing was tried but the same repeatedly  resulted nil.
The follwing pom.xml file is supposed to be the one that might inspire to explore especially from your
suggeted jar-plugin inclusion for your perusal Also sometimes manually plugged items do not extract the wholething frutfullyHence

No, you didn't complete it, because it failed.

On the other hand with the inclusion of junit test(minimal)
everything is possible but executing the  jar is as usual toughest of the highest order

That means that junit is NOT part of getting it to execute. I'm teaching you how to create an executable jar. junit is not necessary to achieve that, and right now we're doing the very minimal necessary to create an executable jar with Maven that will output Hello World!

( I tried all means}.CAN YOU NOT A CONCRETELY EXTRACT ANY BODY from THIS FORUM WHO WAS ABLE TO not only build
jar but execut as well.Incidentally i am  sure thatif maven creates a jar

I'm able to create an executable jar, and I'm teaching you now how to do it. The artifact ID has nothing to do with it. You already know how to build an artifact using Maven, and we're now going to tell Maven what to do to make it executable as well.

Please respond to this with a yes or no since everthing was tried but the same repeatedly  resulted nil.

I don't understand what you've written here. The POM you've posted also includes way too much information. Why is your artifact called spring.SpringBoxLayoutPanel? A Hello World application has nothing to do with Spring or with layouts. What is Gotchagoal? It is unnecessary. junit is unnecessary. The exec-maven-plugin is unnecessary.

Here's the basics you need:

package com.example;

final class Application {

  private Application() {}

  public static void main(String... args) {
    System.out.println("Hello World!");

Why don't you show me first how you completed the POM?

Hi
please note that without using the junit test i created
the jar file and was not able to execute it either
i used  the following two types of command

mvn exec:exec -D exec.executable="java"
mvn exec:java   -D target/hellwworld-1.0.jar

It is rather difficult to execute it

please tell me if the configuration
is ok or not if not ok
indicate the same as to execute the to get the output
Thanks

Why are you using maven-exec-plugin to run the jar? You don't need it. Run the jar like you normally would, using the java command.

Why did you add <CreatedBy>, <MainClass>, <ManifestVersion> and <Class-Path>? Are you just guessing? Did you read the jar:jar goal documentation I linked to?

Hi

Plese see how the error is shown
The latest revised pom is also shown

Maven is not kindenough to read the pom since the same type of snag is givgen plethora times repeated though every attribute is
indicated in pom

This for your needful action

Hi
If i execute in the odrdinary way also it never gives output
For example:
jar -xvf HellowWorld-1.0.jar
java -jar HellowWorlrd-1.0.jar
Resuts is :- No main class in the jar
Please note the differece between the two jars
HellWorld.jar ---HelloWorld-1.0.jar

[Stephan van Hulst]

I'll repeat my questions: Are you just guessing what elements to add to the configuration, or did you read the documentation I linked to?

Hi

The whole lot of the program is again revised starting from scratch
and the following output  is fetched by using commands
mvn clean
mvn jar:jar

This successfully rendered a jar file --> HelloWorld-1.0.jar , though failed to  get installed

Also  on double clicking the same jar or in the tradional way  using the java -jar HellowWorld-1.0.jar do not not give  any output
*******
I included many details in the configuration tag so as to get the jar built as standalone jar that ececutes on double clicking.
But you wanted all these dependencies to get rid off.I am not particular about it since in the distribution proces of my standalone application (which is the bearminimum)
the jar execution may not be that important according to you probably

But on the other hand the same maven created jar file(HelloWorld-1.0.jar on opening with winrare -archiver(zip-type)
the follwing results are fetched  with POM created (same pom only) But this shold be sent to m2.repositry on install coomand but invain.

That error happened because you changed the <id> value of the <execution>. Do you have a reason you changed this?

In order to get an executable JAR, the manifest needs to contain a Main-Class entry with the qualified name of the class that serves as the entry point of your application. We need to configure the maven-jar-plugin to add this entry. If we look at the available configuration parameters on the documentation page, the only one that relates to the manifest or the archive containing the manifest file, is the <archive> parameter. How to configure the archive is then documented in the page that the <archive> parameter links to: http://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver/index.html

Looking at the documentation there, there are three parameters we can use to configure the manifest entries: <manifest>, <manifestEntries> and <manifestFile>. We want to specify the entry point directly in the POM, so we won't be using <manifestFile>. We could use <manifestEntries> as a generic approach, but lets first look at the <manifest> structure.

Under the <manifest> description there are many interesting parameters, but the only one that we need right now is the <mainClass> parameter, which explicitly states it relates to the Main-Class manifest entry.

This means you can configure your entry point in archive/manifest/mainClass. You need 4 lines to open and close the <archive> and <manifest> elements, and 1 line to set the value of the <mainClass> element.

Since jar:jar binds to the package phase by default, you can create the JAR by running mvn package. You can then unzip it to verify that the generated manifest file contains the appropriate Main-Class entry.

Hi

Indeed our efforts never got wasted since
the results under your substantial tutotrialship
is so magnanimous and delightful that
i need not scratch HelowWorld-1.0.jar execution on double-click right now
,,Probably if
you may do amother session for classifier usage as per last message &
make this long episode a jackpot.( Now is it clear why i used the id as
executable-jar whih says about classifier)please note i have used the default
value for addClasspath as false after giving
the fully qualified path that was why installing was possible

Thanks
Cheers

From your post, I don't understand whether you got the JAR to execute, but there are still issues with your POM.

The <addClassPath> element is unnecessary. You should only use it if your JAR has dependencies on other libraries.

The <packageName> element is unnecessary. I'm not sure what the Package manifest entry does, but it's not necessary to create an executable JAR.

The <useUniqueVersions> element is unnecessary. The default value is already true, so you don't need to specify it.

Your indentation is incorrect. The </goals> closing tag should be on the same column as the <goals> opening tag. Your <archive>, <manifest> and <mainClass> entries should be indented in accordance with their nested level.

Your <mainClass> value contains a typo. Please be precise.

Taken together, this is how the <execution> should look:
<execution>  <id>default-jar</id>    <goals>    <goal>jar</goal>  </goals>                <configuration>    <archive>      <manifest>        <mainClass>com.example.Application</mainClass>      </manifest>    </archive>  </configuration> </execution>
The reason that the <id> element has the default-jar value is because the POM already inherits this execution from its parent POM, and specifying an ID other than default-jar will create a new execution with the same plugin, which then requires a classifier. To see how the parent pom influences your current POM, you should run 'mvn help:effective-pom'. If we use a minimal POM, it will yield roughly the following result.

Original POM in C:\Code\HelloWorld\pom.xml:

Hi
Was eager to know further in making the executable file render output ok.Also
the site deployment in this  was also rather unsportive .The error messgae
tells pinpointedly the deficiency viz wagon-protocol for deploy the site

Shall be glad if you make the this errorless  by inclussion of the same
Please note this venture is for a another application viz SimplexTool.
on the same lines as that of

Please don't post the effective POM. I can generate it myself. Post your original POM.

Did you see that the error message tells you exactly what's wrong?

[Comal Rajagopalaratnam Muthukumar]

Thanks

You didn't show me your POM, how you executed it, or what the output was.

[Comal Rajagopalaratnam Muthukumar]

Again, I don't know what POM you used, what you did to execute it, or what error message you are getting. The last POM you posted is your effective POM, which is useless to me.

Please post your POM, what command you used, and what happened afterwards.

[Comal Rajagopalaratnam Muthukumar]

Hi


It has taken a lot of timein trail and error method to atlast get the output that you wanted me to get
Yes the following  dialog is more than self explanatory
.You must now help me to get the same out put without
me manually updating the maven created Application-1.0-jar
which i hope you remenber sometime back i called to make use of(Gotcha for non-extraction of details)
ie;unjarring the jar.
The same is done by a mere  updating here which is not 100% ok  inlieu of its tradional method otherwise
the application(POM) rendered success for  the following

phases
*******
compile
package
install
tomcat:deploy
post-site

Hi
On another venture for creatiing a jar with site deployment for an application java prg
the following snags were give by maven.
As these errors are very simple,please tell me a way to get id of the same

********************************
Reason: java.net.UnknownHostException: http -> [Help 1]

***************************
Will it be alright if i try to run the pom keeping internet -connected.otherwise what alternative you would recommend.


The solution for this does nor neceesrily require pom details.the correction can be only from downloaded
apache-maven -site deployment for adding the scp throgh wagon
as also all phase are clearly succesful
mvn->
clean
compile
prepare-package
package
install
pre-site
site
post-site
site:deploy------>requires connection or so


Thanks
